I have no idea what these are, except that they possibly have something to do with ants as there was an ant on the twigs above them. They are about 7-8cm long and look like hundreds of tiny black sticks held together with gauze or silk. The fourth shot shows the bush they were hanging from.

How peculiar.
Yep, an ant.
Is that an ant at the top?
I have seen black long hairs growing on plants but this one is totally new.
Interesting!
Thanks Ava, I hope someone can identify them too!
I hope someone can identify these; they're fascinating.
